Q: Parents save money in a bank for their one child. The age of the child is seven years old. They do not give any zakah for that money. If parents ask the child may we use this money for this (something) purpose and the child says yes, can they use it with the child's permission? Can they do qurbani from that money?
Q: I am almost 16 years old. My parents give me pocket money every month. When they give me this money, do I become the Maalik (owner) of that money or does it remain under the ownership of my parents?
If sometimes they need some money, they ask me to lend them some money as loan. And if my mother thinks that I am not spending my money right, she takes my purse and money from me and keeps it with her and returns it after some time.
If I save that money over time and buy an online course with that money. The online course is about how to earn money online. So, if I learn from that course how to earn money online and then I earn money online, will that money which I earn, be considered under my ownership or my parents ownership? Because if it is in my parents ownership then it will be divided in Wirasat.
Q: I have 2 children aged 2 years old and a 3 month old baby. My husband tells me that I have no right in making any decisions for the babies such as something as small as cutting or triming their hair, he has every right to make the decisions. Is he right?

Q: My baby boy is almost 2 years old. I'm a single mother. I have a dua and dream that he goes in the right path and becomes very pious or an imam and hafiz. How can he attain that level? Are there any specific duas that I should do and what should I do myself to set these goals?
Q: I have a 16 year old son that cannot wake up for Fajr every day. My wife says to me that’s it’s our responsibility to make sure he gets up. Is it really our duty to ensure that he wakes up for Fajr everyday?
In the past, when I would wake him up, he would say that he is getting up, but most of the time, he would not wake up. Sehri is also a problem, though eventually, he does wake up for sehri. My view is that since he is old enough, if he misses salaah, he will be sinful, not his parents.
